Chinese automaker BYD's push for global expansion faces challenges in Japan - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

EV sales have been slow in Japan because Toyota and other domestic automakers have focused more on hybrid technology.

An industry ministry official said the aim of the change was to create an environment where EVs were used sustainably and promoted "in a Japanese way".

To win over Japanese drivers, BYD has offered discounts on the first 1,000 cars sold of its newest model, and is airing TV commercials starring a Japanese actress.
